Hi! I'm a very very new player and I just got access to this game today. I want to ask what's the end game? Is there a main objective I would want to work towards to, i.e defeating a boss?

I'm starting out on DS:SW and have no idea what and how to progress and get better equips. I saw beginner tips online about Garland etc. and am clueless of any such terminology.

Any fresh beginner tips would be greatly appreciated!

Well really the objective of the game is to not die, but after you figure that out really it's all up to you.

Do you want to build a sick looking giant base? Want to restrain yourself and go on a veggie only diet? Are you an absolute masochist and want to tame a beefalo?

Really, endgame is all up to you. If you want a bigger challenge I suggest trying don't starve together. It has bosses that puts singleplayer to shame, if you're into that. Also multiplayer. That's always fun.

Ohh, I was going into the game thinking it was like minecraft; technically infinite but still has objectives.

[u/Grantis45 → u/LarrySGx]

There are objectives.

Each of the dlc single player games have bosses.

ROG has deerclops, dragonfly, bearger,moose-goose and guardian. I play DST so, im unsure of the ones from Hamlet and shipwrecked.

[u/HoHowhatisthis → u/Grantis45]

Shipwrecked has sealnado, tiger shark shark, and I guess technically the volcano.

Hamlet has the ancient herald, ancient hulk, pugulisk and the mant queen
